Emperor of the Mysterious Heavens

Chapter 52: Chapter 023 The Second Game of Chess

Xingluo Mountain Villa, Feitian Hall!

"Grandpa, what is Yan Chuan up to?" Yi Lin said with an unhappy expression.

"What's wrong?" Yi Feng put down the scroll in his hand and smiled slightly.

"He said that he wants to level the small island in the center of the lake and play chess with you in the center of the lake? What does playing chess have to do with the small island? He's just making trouble for no reason!" Yi Lin said unhappily.

"Didn't he explain?" Yi Feng smiled.

"He explained, but what kind of explanation is his? 'Grand Tutor, your chess strength is sufficient, but you don't know its depth. Playing chess in the lake, I will let Grand Tutor see the true height of my chess art. What is chess really?' Grandpa, look, what is he talking about? How could you not know your own chess art? Does he, a young kid, need to tell you what to do?" Yi Lin said angrily.

"Then repair the small island in the center of the lake as he said!" Yi Feng shook his head and smiled.

"But, but..." Yi Lin became even more strange.

"Go." Yi Feng smiled.

"Alright." Yi Lin sighed slightly.

Level the small island in the center of the lake and build a chess-playing platform?

By the lake, Meng Rongrong, Chang Qing and others all looked at the busyness in the small lake strangely.

"Young lady, what is Yan Chuan doing? Playing chess in the center of the lake? Is there such a custom?" Chang Qing asked strangely.

"Wait. The game is about to start soon. Then we'll know!" Meng Rongrong said in a deep voice.

"Alright!"

...

Inside the valley within a valley.

In a large hall. The fog was so thick that one couldn't see one's fingers. At a desk in the center, eight oil lamps were lit.

Liu Jin ground the ink. Yan Chuan was using the "Dream Immortal" brush and writing on rice paper page by page.

On the rice paper, at this moment Yan Chuan was writing a large character "Fog".

As soon as the character "Fog" appeared, the fog around it trembled even more.

"How many pieces have been written, Liu Jin?" Yan Chuan said in a deep voice.

"Your Highness has written one hundred and nine pieces. One hundred and eight characters 'Fog' and one character 'Merge'." Liu Jin said respectfully.

"Good, that's enough." Yan Chuan nodded.

"I will rest for two days. Go and tell Grand Tutor Yi Feng that we will meet on the small island in the center of the lake in two days!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.

"Yes!" Liu Jin responded.

...

In the outer valley of Xingluo Mountain Villa.

At this moment, a group of chess kings were no longer playing chess, but no one left. Instead, they all went to the entrance of the valley within a valley. A group of servants stopped them.

"I heard that the co-prince and Master Yi are going to play a second game of chess? Can you inform us? We just want to watch the game!" A white-browed chess king said politely.

"Yes, we will definitely not speak. We just want to watch the game!"

"Please report to Master Yi. We really want to see this game of chess!"...

All the chess kings were longing for it. The previous game of chess was a once-in-a-thousand-years encounter. At this moment, it is said that the second game of chess is even more wonderful. For ordinary people, it's just a lively event. But for these chess kings who are obsessed with chess, this is a fatal temptation.

So much so that everyone jointly pleaded just to watch one game of chess.

...

"Grandpa, the chess kings outside are asking to see you jointly! But if so many people come in at once, won't it break the rules?" Yi Lin frowned.

"Let them watch. From now on, as long as those who want to watch the game, don't stop them!" Yi Feng smiled.

"Yes!"

...

Two days passed in a flash.

Yan Chuan washed up and slowly walked out of the hall where he lived. Led by Liu Jin, he walked towards the small lake.

At this moment, all the chess kings were standing by the lake, looking at Yan Chuan walking step by step with eager eyes. There was admiration in their eyes, but also helplessness.

After finally getting the qualification to watch the game, they found that the two people were playing chess in the center of the lake. This... How can they watch this?

In the pavilion on the other side.

Meng Rongrong was wearing a bamboo hat and sitting on a stone bench, drinking tea and looking quietly. Standing behind her were Chang Qing and others. They looked at this scene slightly strangely because no one knew what Yan Chuan was really up to.

In the center of the lake, there were some simple cooking utensils, pastries, a go board, and two lounge chairs.

An old man with white hair was sitting at the go board. Looking at Yan Chuan coming from afar, his expression was calm.

Yan Chuan also saw the old man, but didn't speak across the small lake.

"Co-prince, please!" Yi Lin came forward.

"Um." Yan Chuan nodded.

Carrying the Jade Emperor Sword on his back, Liu Jin was carrying a roll of painting. Following Yi Lin, they stepped onto a small boat. The small boat quickly rowed to the central island.

Landing!

"Yan Chuan greets the old lady." Yan Chuan smiled.

"Yi Feng greets the co-prince." Yi Feng also said politely.

"Yan Chuan chose this place to play chess with Grand Tutor this time only to show the subtleties of chess. I hope Grand Tutor will like it." Yan Chuan smiled.

"Looking forward to it." Yi Feng nodded.

Yi Feng didn't say much, and neither did Yan Chuan because it wasn't the time yet.

"Liu Jin." Yan Chuan looked at Liu Jin.

"Yes!"

Liu Jin quickly unfurled the spatial painting scroll. Slowly, he took out a piece of rice paper from the painting scroll.

"Eh?" Yi Lin's eyes widened in surprise.

In the small pavilion by the lake in the distance, Meng Rongrong said strangely, "A spatial magic treasure?"

There was a flash of light in Yi Feng's eyes, but he didn't speak.

Liu Jin lifted the go board on the stone table and pressed that piece of rice paper underneath.

"Merge? A good character. But what does this mean?" Yi Feng smiled.

"You'll know later!" Yan Chuan smiled.

"Liu Jin, go." Yan Chuan looked at Liu Jin.

"Yes!"

Liu Jin stepped onto the previous small boat. The servants quickly rowed the boat to the shore.

Then, Liu Jin took out pieces of rice paper one by one from the painting scroll.

He placed one piece by the small lake and pressed it down with a stone.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, fog filled the area around the small lake.

"What's going on? Fog? Why is there fog here?"

"Yes, there is fog only in this area. There is no fog in other places!"

"That piece of paper? Could it be a fairy magic treasure?"

...

All the chess kings exclaimed in surprise.

Liu Jin ignored them. Instead, he quickly placed pieces of rice paper around the small lake and fixed them with stones.

More and more fog appeared. By the lake, with the lake water replenishing, thick fog rose.

Each piece of rice paper attracted a lot of attention.

"The brush falls and startles the wind and rain?" Yi Feng exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh? Does Grand Tutor also know?" Yan Chuan smiled.

"Your father said it. I didn't expect that at such a young age, you have actually reached this realm!" Yi Feng sighed.

Yan Chuan didn't correct him. He just smiled and said, "Cultivators can infuse their own mana onto the chessboard when playing chess. You and I are only at the strength realm now and naturally can't do it. I took a shortcut and used fog to show the chess way after having mana!"

"Looking forward to it!" Yi Feng smiled.

On one side, Yi Feng's grandson showed a look of astonishment and stared at Yan Chuan as if seeing him for the first time.

By the lake, in the pavilion.

"Is it 'The brush falls and startles the wind and rain' written by Yan Chuan?" Chang Qing exclaimed in surprise.

"It's not 'The brush falls and startles the wind and rain'. It's 'The brush falls and shows the atmosphere'!" Meng Rongrong said in a deep voice.

"What? 'The brush falls and shows the atmosphere'? How is that possible!" Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

"Indeed, it can't be wrong. Although I haven't reached this level, I can still tell. His chess is so high, and his calligraphy is so strong. It's a pity that my brother isn't here. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't let Yan Chuan take all the limelight!" Meng Rongrong frowned.

There was a hint of envy and a hint of reluctance in her tone.

"Miss's brother? Mr. Wenruo? Yes, Mr. Wenruo was a genius in the academy back then. If it weren't for that incident back then... Hehe, in any case, Mr. Wenruo is still Miss's brother. The brother-sister relationship between you two cannot be severed. Otherwise, Mr. Wenruo wouldn't have given Miss the Chongjing Pill!" Chang Qing smiled.

"Um." Meng Rongrong nodded and didn't want to say more.

Before long, Liu Jin arranged one hundred and eight characters 'Fog' around the small lake. In an instant, the entire small lake was covered in thick fog. The rolling fog churned non-stop, and it was impossible to see the two people in the center of the lake at all.

All the chess kings originally couldn't see the chessboard in the lake. Now that it was covered in thick fog, they couldn't see anything at all. But no one complained. Instead, they seemed even more excited.

On the small island in the center of the lake.

Yi Feng looked at the thick fog around in surprise. Yi Lin opened his mouth wide in astonishment.

"What is this?" Yi Feng asked.

"There must be countless wise people in the Julu Academy, and there are many people who have made achievements in chess. Although I haven't been to the Julu Academy, I can feel the prosperous literary atmosphere there. However, today my characters contain some special dao rhymes. What I want to show Grand Tutor is the chess way in my heart. Grand Tutor, please watch carefully!" Yan Chuan smiled.

"Please!" Yi Feng made a gesture of yielding.

Yan Chuan was not polite.

He picked up a black piece with his index finger and middle finger and placed it on the most central position on the chessboard.

"Plop!"

A piece fell on the celestial origin position.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a loud thunder in the sky.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Suddenly, the countless white fog in the lake started to swirl around the central island clockwise. It swirled faster and faster, like a huge vortex. The small island in the center of the lake was at the center of the vortex.

At the same time, above this white fog vortex, a large black cloud appeared at some point.

The loud thunder after placing a piece on the celestial origin came from this black cloud.

In the center of the black cloud, there was a pit. It was as if the black piece had fallen, and a large chessboard appeared on the black cloud.

"Whoosh!"

All the ordinary people looked at this scene in astonishment.

In the pavilion by the lake.

"The characters? 'The brush falls and shows the atmosphere'? Yan Chuan's characters have merged with that chessboard?" Meng Rongrong exclaimed in surprise.

"The characters and chess have merged?" Chang Qing and others were also astonished.

"How old is Yan Chuan?"

...

People outside were already surprised. And on the small island in the center of the lake, Yi Feng could feel it even more deeply.

For a moment, it seemed as if the chessboard had merged with the white fog around. It gave Yi Feng a feeling of being immersed in it.

"Four in four!" Yi Feng placed a white piece.

"Neigh... Neigh... Neigh..."

Suddenly, there were countless neighs of horses from the rolling white fog.

"Boom!"

In the high sky, there was another loud thunder. On the black cloud, a white dot suddenly appeared, as if corresponding to the chess game below.

"Why are there sounds of horses? How come there are sounds of horses?" Yi Lin on one side exclaimed in surprise.

"This fog has entered the chess. The chess is all in the fog. The deployment of troops begins. Placing a piece is like setting up thousands of hidden troops!" Yan Chuan explained.

"Plop!"

As he spoke, Yan Chuan placed another piece.

"Neigh!"

"Neigh!"

"I am invincible!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

...

From the white fog, there came a tsunami-like battle cry, as if waiting for Yan Chuan's command.

The passionate shouts were exciting.

Yi Lin was so scared that he fell to the ground, his face full of astonishment.

Yi Feng closed his eyes slightly and felt.

When he closed his eyes, it seemed as if Yi Feng was sitting alone on a high platform in the sea of clouds. In all directions, there was the vast territory of the sea of clouds. Inside the chess bowl in his hand were thousands of troops and horses, waiting for him to deploy troops and arrange the world.

Placing a piece was like placing thousands of troops and horses in the sea of clouds. The momentum was soaring. The chess field was the battlefield, and the chess field is the field of the world!

The blood that had been silent for decades was now seemingly ignited instantly, boiling with passion.

Supreme in one side, playing chess and fighting the world!
